Summary of Warnings and Cautions Never work on electronic equipment unless there is another person nearby who is familiar with the operation and hazards of the equipment and who is competent in administering first aid. When the technician is aided by operators, he must warn them about dangerous areas. Definitions An operating procedure or practice that, if not followed properly, could result in personal injury or loss of life An operating procedure or practice that, if not strictly observed, could result in damage to or destruction of equipment. An operating procedure or practice that, if not strictly observed, could result in damage to or destruction of equipment An operating procedure or condition that is emphasized to assure reader NOTE understanding and proper compliance. Hazard of electric shock or burn. DO NOT remove cover around power panel circuit breaker. Whenever possible, the power supply to the equipment must be shut off before beginning work on the equipment. Take particular care to ground every capacitor likely to hold a dangerous potential. When working inside the equipment, after the power has been turned off, always ground every part before touching. Be careful not to contact high voltage connections of 208/115 Volts Alternating Current (VAC) connections when installing or operating this equipment. For Artificial Respiration, refer to TC 4-02.1 FIRST AID January 2016. Do not remove equipment panels. Panel removal may expose voltages which can kill you on contact. Do not tamper with smoke detectors. Radioactive material is sealed within each detector. Improper handling can expose personnel to harmful radiation. Do not look into the Crewstation sight in-use sensors (located below some of the Crewstation sights) when the eye is closer than 4 inches (10.2 cm) to a sensor. The sensors emit infrared radiation and can cause serious damage to eyesight. Remove all rings, bracelets, wristwatches, earrings, necklaces, ID tags or other metal jewelry before working in electronic assemblies. Jewelry could short across an electrical circuit and cause severe burns or electrical shock. An over temperature condition can rapidly develop into an equipment fire and produce toxic smoke. When an over temperature condition occurs in the Bradley COFT shelter, alert students and ensure they exit the Crewstation and shelter immediately. Combat Vehicle Crewman (CVC) helmet must be worn when entering Crewstation and not removed until exit from crew station is completed. When entering or exiting the Crewstation, take extreme care that you do not bump your head on Crewstation entrance. TTT cases are 4-person lift. Do not attempt to lift without four people as personal injury could result. Connecting the TTT to a power source that is not 120 VAC, 60 Hz, single phase or 230 VAC, 50Hz single phase power can result in damage to the equipment. TTT cases cannot be stacked more than 2 cases high due to manufacturer restrictions. Stacking them higher than 2 cases could damage the case and/or the hardware inside. The TTT power must be turned off and the power cables disconnected from the facility power source before TTT case cables are disconnected. This page left intentionally blank.

The Bradley COFT enables the crew to perform critical skills required in combat. To accomplish these required skills, the Bradley COFT provides a Crew Training Program. The Crew Training Program provides training in the principles of gunnery in the Bradley Fighting Vehicle and is designed to support the following specific training programs: a. Special Purpose - Introduces crews to orientation, zeroing, gunnery preparation exercises, and trains inexperienced crewmen in the basics of Bradley gunnery techniques. b. Sustainment Training - For crews that have previously qualified. Crewmembers who have completed exercises in the Gunnery or Combat Training Matrix exercises have those exercises placed in the Sustainment Matrix and can chose to shoot these exercises again to try and improve their scores. These exercises are chosen by the IO and Matrix Progression does not apply. c. Gunnery Training - Trains crews in gunnery skills to prepare them for qualification and advanced training exercises. d. Combat Training - Provides training to qualified crews in utilizing each of the gunnery systems in a wide variety of situations to ensure that qualification is retained. Crews increase or sustain their gunnery proficiency by successfully completing exercises that require the performance of gunnery tasks under conditions similar to those encountered in combat. These tasks must be performed when the BFV is fully operational, and with malfunctions. The Instructor Operator (IO) is a critical element in the Bradley COFT training system. The IO operates the trainer and trains the crews in gunnery skills. The IO accomplishes this task by thoroughly understanding the Bradley COFT, BFV weapons systems, and the crucial training role of the IO. It is good practice to have your IO certified as a Vehicle Crew Evaluator to help facilitate Table II Simulations. 1.2 PURPOSE The Bradley COFT is a dual-configuration simulation system that replicates the Bradley ODS-SA or the Bradley A3 vehicle, functions in a synthetic environment, and is used by an instructor to train and sustain the Bradley Gunner and Commander in critical gunnery skills required for direct fire engagements. This handbook covers three configurations of the Bradley COFT; the Mobile configuration, the Institutional configuration and the Table Top Trainer (TTT) configuration. Each configuration consists of a Crewstation, Computational System Rack (CSR), and Instructor/Operator Station (IOS) subsystem. The Mobile configuration has an additional subsystem, the Trailer. This system meets the requirements for Table II Simulation. 1.3 SCOPE This manual describes the Bradley COFT training device and consists of eight chapters and three appendices. Each chapter addresses a specific aspect of the Bradley COFT and the Instructor Operator’s role in that system. Emphasis is on the Instructor Operator’s duties and the available instructional features. The manual contains the following information: 1-1 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Introduction a.

The chapter is broken down into two sections: Section I describes the location and description of major components; Section II describes the IO Station (IOS) training displays and printout pages. 2.2 SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS This manual covers all three configurations of the Bradley COFT; the Institutional configuration, the Mobile configuration and the Table Top Trainer configuration. 2.2.1 Institutional Bradley COFT Configuration The Institutional Bradley COFT (Figure 2-1 Institutional Bradley COFT) is housed in a building or facility specifically designed for the Bradley COFT and consists of a Crewstation, Computational System Rack (CSR) and the Instructor Operator Station (IOS). The building or facility provides heating, ventilation, air conditioning, fire suppression, electrical power, and lighting. Figure 2-1 Institutional Bradley COFT Crewstation (1) Instructor Operator Station (3) Computational System Rack (2) 2.2.2 Mobile Bradley COFT Configuration The Mobile Bradley COFT configuration houses the IOS, CSR, and Crewstation subsystems inside a trailer. There are two types of trailers that can exist on a Bradley COFT Mobile Trainer: Trailer 1 – Sometimes also called the Shelter/Trailer/Generator (STG) because there is a removable ISO shelter on top of a trailer (see Figure 2-2) 2-1 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators Trailer 2 – An integrated trailer solution (see Figure 2-3) Figure 2-2 Mobile Bradley COFT – Trailer 1 Crewstation (1) Deck Storage Box (6) Computational System Rack (2) Circuit Breaker Panel (7) Instructor Operator Station (3) Power Line Conditioner (8) Fuel Cell (4) Spares Storage Cabinet (9) Generator Enclosure (5) 2-2 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators Figure 2-3 Mobile Bradley COFT - Trailer 2 Crewstation (1) Above Generator Storage (6) Computational System Rack (2) Circuit Breaker Panels (7) Instructor Operator Station (3) Power Line Conditioner (8) Fuel Cell (4) Foot Locker Storage Cabinet (9) Generator (5) Batteries (10) 2-3 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators 2.2.3 Table Top Trainer (TTT) Configuration The Table Top Trainer consists of 4 transportable cases: an IOS case, CSR case, 1 Gunner’s and 1 Commander’s case. 1 2 4 3 Figure 2-4 Table Top Trainer Bradley COFT Instructor Operator Station (1) Gunner’s Station (3) Computational System Rack (2) Commander’s Station (4) 2.2.4 Bradley COFT Configurations Operational Factors During system operation, the temperature of the shelter area for the Mobile configurations and the training area of the Institutional configurations must be maintained between 60° and 90° F (16° and 32° C), with a relative humidity of 20 to 70 percent (non-condensing). During non-training periods, the temperature of the shelter area for the Mobile configurations and the training area of the Institutional configurations should be maintained between 0° and 125° F (- 18° and 52° C), with a relative humidity of 10 to 90 percent (non-condensing). During system operation, the temperature where the TTT configuration is being used must be maintained between 40° and 100° F (4° and 38° C), with a relative humidity of 20 to 90 percent (non-condensing). During non-training periods, the temperature where the TTT is located must be maintained between 25° and 125° F (-4° and 52° C), with a relative humidity of 10 to 90 percent (non-condensing). The IO is responsible for ensuring that the humidity and temperature of the equipment areas remain within the prescribed ranges at all times. Therefore, during periods when the system is not being used for training, the IO must ensure that correct temperature is maintained. 2-4 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators 2.3 INSTRUCTOR OPERATOR STATION The IOS is used to communicate with the Computational System Rack (CSR) and the Crewstation to control and initiate system power-up, system diagnosis, training selections, training, training record management, and system power-down. The IOS permits the IO to verbally communicate with the crew during training (Figure 2-5 Institutional and Mobile IOS and Figure 2-6 TTT IOS). The IOS software is used to plan, control, and archive results of the execution of the training. Mobile and Institutional configurations of the IOS hardware differ slightly. The Institutional configuration has extended cabinet feet for balance and a back cover; whereas the Mobile IOS is mounted directly to the shelter floor and side wall. In the Mobile configuration, a digital generator gauge is mounted on the wall near the IOS for use by the IO or Senior Instructor Operator (SIO). 2-5 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators 3 4 5 2 1 6 7 Figure 2-5 Institutional and Mobile IOS Key Control or Indicator Function 1 IOS Printer Used to print training and crew record data. 2 Situation Monitor Allows the IO to observe and control crew performance during training.

It includes all necessary switches, controls, sights, indicators, and panels (see Figure 2-7 Institutional and Mobile Bradley COFT Crewstation). The Crewstation is a molded fiberglass mock-up of a BFV turret, located inside a steel support structure. There are minor differences between the Institutional and Mobile Crewstation. The Institutional Crewstation has side panels covering the left and right of the module, the Mobile Crewstation does not. The Institutional Crewstation also has casters and leveling feet, the Mobile Crewstation module is mounted directly to the Mobile shelter floor. The TTT configuration provides the Commander’s and Gunner’s controls in a transportable case. Due to limited space and transportability of the TTT some crew station functions that are present in the Mobile and Institutional trainer are not available on the TTT (see Figure 2-8 TTT Bradley COFT Crewstation). Vehicle and weapon sounds are simulated and heard through the sound system speakers in the Crewstation. To create the most realistic operating environment possible, the Bradley COFT simulates the vehicle noises associated with normal operations in a combat environment. The simulated sounds include engine, engine transmission, tracks, turret and gun movement, TOW launcher raising and lowering, 25mm gun firing, 7.62mm coaxial machine gun firing, TOW firing, sear/misfire, collisions, and Bradley vehicle software tones. Remote sounds include sounds for vehicle engines, vehicle tracks, munitions, explosions, rotary and fixed wing aircraft. The intercom system also serves as a direct link between the Commander, the Gunner, and the Instructor Operator. Ownvehicle movement is simulated and modified by movement of the regular sight scenes, including reticle movement and vibration. Ownvehicle motion can be stopped and restarted during any part of the exercise by the Instructor Operator or upon command from the Vehicle Commander. The 25mm gun, TOW and turret controls simulate those of the BFV. Each power control handle and its manual backup system simulate the force, movement, and resulting weapon system response as the actual vehicle. In the stabilized power mode, the stabilization of the 25mm gun and coax machine gun is simulated. All palm switches, push buttons, and auxiliary gun/turret controls required to conduct gunnery exercises are functionally simulated in the Bradley COFT Crewstation. 2-9 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators Figure 2-7 Institutional and Mobile Bradley COFT Crewstation Figure 2-8 TTT Bradley COFT Crewstation 2.4.1 Institutional and Mobile Commander’s Station The Commander has the capability to view three periscopes; Remote Biocular Display (RBD) sight, Commander’s Smart Display (CSD) or the backup sight. The Commander’s station also includes a Commander’s Sight Control Panel (CSCP), Commander’s Data Entry Tool (CDET2), Commander’s Hand Station (CHS), simulated coax, seat and intercom with Master Control Station (MCS). For proper display in the IOS, the Auxiliary Sight includes an in-use sensor that informs the system when the Commander's head is placed in position to view the Auxiliary Sight. The IOS will then display the Auxiliary Sight video in the IOS's Commander's Repeater view monitor. All other controls and indicators in the Commander’s station that are required to conduct simulated gunnery function in the same manner as in the actual vehicle. 2-10 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators 2.4.2 TTT Commander’s Station The Commander has the capability to view the RBD sight and CSD. The Commander’s station also includes a CSCP, CDET2, Coax azimuth and elevation adjustment knobs, and CHS.

The IBAS has an in-use sensor just below the IBAS DVO sight for the system to determine whether to display the DVO or the Biocular sight imagery in the IOS Gunner's Repeater monitor. The Auxiliary Sight image is displayed on the IOS Gunner's repeater monitor if the Auxiliary Sight is rotated to the Gunner's position and the Gunner activates the Auxiliary Sight in-use sensor by placing his head near the Auxiliary Sight. All other controls and indicators within the Gunner’s station that are required to conduct simulated gunnery function in the same manner as the real vehicle. 2.4.4 TTT Gunner’s Station The IBAS FLIR/TV biocular and the DVO sights are both available for viewing by the Gunner. All switches, controls and indicators within the Gunner’s station that are required to conduct simulated gunnery function in the same manner as the real vehicle with exception of the manual turret azimuth and manual gun elevation functionality. The TTT Gunner’s Station includes a limited functionality for manual turret azimuth and gun elevation control. Knobs on either side of the Gunner’s Hand Station (GHS) provide manual turret azimuth and manual gun elevation control. These knobs, along with the Aux Sight azimuth and elevation knobs are provided in the TTT Gunner’s Station for training of zeroing procedures. There are no manual drive levers provided on the TTT Gunner’s Station. To enter manual mode the IO clicks the Manual Mode button on the Situation Monitor. When pressed, the Manual Mode button simulates placement of the manual drive handles in their respective manual mode positions. 2.5 COMPUTATIONAL SYSTEM RACK (CSR) The CSR includes the computers and network appliances that connect the Crewstation and the IOS, as well as the hardware and software to implement the vehicle simulation, Image Generation, the Semi-Automated Forces (SAF), database software simulating the actions of elements in the operational environment, and the workstations that host the instructor software. The CSR is identical in both the Institutional and Mobile configurations. The TTT CSR contains the necessary hardware and software to support the conduct of simulated gunnery for the BFV. 2-11 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators 4 3 2 1 8 9 Figure 2-9 Computational System Rack Key Control or Indicator Function 1 Image Generator Graphics Provides IBAS FLIR and Day TV image.

The EPDU provides 208 VAC, 3-phase power to the Bradley COFT subsystems (IOS, CSR, and the Crewstation). Each subsystem splits the 208 VAC power into three 120 VAC, single phase outputs. There is an emergency power off (EPO) switch located at each personnel door of the trailer in the Mobile configuration that will fully secure all power to components by disengaging the trailer power distribution and the training system. The classrooms in the Institutional configuration have an EPO switch mounted near the doors which secures power to the room. On both the Mobile and Institutional configurations, there are two (2) EPO switches, one at the Crewstation entrance and one at the IOS (see Figure 2-11 Fire Protection Equipment EPO Locations, item 4). Selection of any EPO switch will disengage power from the EPDU. In the Mobile configuration, selection of any EPO switch will also disengage power to the shelter. 2.7 FIRE PROTECTION EQUIPMENT Each Institutional and Mobile Bradley COFT training station is equipped with fire protection equipment necessary to alert the operator and crew members in case of fire (Figure 2-11 Fire Protection Equipment EPO Locations). This equipment includes a fire alarm system that has smoke alarms located in the Crewstation compartment and trainer trailer for Mobile configurations. In addition to the smoke detectors and alarm enunciator panel installed on the Crewstation, the facility housing the Institutional trainer is equipped with an independent fire detection and suppression infrastructure and emergency lighting and fire extinguishers located in the training area of the Institutional trainer and the trainer trailer of the Mobile trainer. The equipment should be 2-14 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators checked by the operator and field service representative for its operability. 2-15 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators 2-16 Document Number TM 07-6920-732-20 Description and Use of Controls and Indicators Figure 2-11 Fire Protection Equipment EPO Locations Key Control or Indicator Function 1 Fire Alarm Panel Monitors the smoke alarms and when activated, shuts down power to the trainer and activates the Strobe/Horn assembly. 2 Smoke Alarm Monitors the Crewstation for smoke. 3 Strobe/Horn Assembly Alerts the crew and IO when a potential fire hazard has been detected. 4 Emergency Power Off Used in case of an emergency to remove power from Switches the system. 2.8 INSTITUTIONAL AND MOBILE LASER PRINTER The Laser printer is an output device which provides the IO with the capability to print hardcopy results of exercises and crew records.
